Pagination Does Not Reset When Re-Testing Node

[dkindlund]

Bug Description

Pagination state of test output does not reset back to Page 1 upon retest operations. This causes the test output window to fail to show data on subsequent retests when the amount of data is less than the previous page. Check the reproduce steps for more detail.

To Reproduce

1. Create a new Workflow
2. Add a node to the workflow that will generate more than 1 page of test data (for example Airtable) and make sure to return enough data to exceed more than 1 page by adjusting the Limit param.
3. Click the Test step button.
4. Navigate to like the 5th page of the Output, as shown below:

5. Then, while still on the 5th page of the output, change the Limit param back to 1.
6. Click the Test step button
7. See that the Output window is completely EMPTY:

I suspect what is happening, is that n8n attempts to "remember" that it is on the 5th page after the Test step button is clicked. And because the new test doesn't yield as many pages of output, the 5th page is INVALID, which is why the empty window is shown.

Expected behavior

I would expect that upon clicking the Test step button, that the current page RESETS back to the 1st page, accordingly.

Hey @dkindlund,

Thanks for the report, I managed to reproduce it with the DebugHelper node. The internal dev ticket to resolve this is ADO-2230.
